Start with a Zanpakuto and build the strongest Mist Village

Chapter 172 Tsunade's Shikai! The Rise of the Uchiha!

"That size over there... is that Orochimaru's Mangeki?!"

The battlefield between Kumogakure and Konoha was on a plain, and the low trees could not hide the huge body of the Second Generation Manza.

The moment Orochimaru summoned him, many Konoha ninjas on the battlefield recognized Manja's identity at the first time, and their expressions couldn't help but be a little dazed.

War, giant snake-like spirit beasts.

Whether it was the Second Ninja World War or the Third Ninja World War, they all represented Konoha's top fighting force, but now...

"Although it looks a bit strange, it must be Wanshe."

On the battlefield of Konoha, a ninja from the Hyuga clan stared at the forest, turned his head and replied to Shimura Danzo: "However, I only saw the chakra of Orochimaru, but Orochimaru is definitely fighting with another unknown person at the moment."

"This feeling is very similar to that of the people from Seireitei a few days ago. Lord Danzo, what should we do?"

"Is Orochimaru fighting with the people from Seireitei?" Danzo snorted coldly, "It seems that guy also wants to gain something from this war between Konoha and Kumogakure... Don't worry about them. First pay attention to Fugaku's position, lock the Kumogakure position, and make sure the opponent's Jinchūriki is not on the front battlefield."

"Yes!"

Orochimaru's battle with the people of Soul Society was undoubtedly a good thing in Danzo's view.

Although the former was once his partner, he has already defected from Konoha.

Although the latter helped Konoha in this war, the opponent's strength really frightened Danzo.

Both sides are a threat to both Danzo and Konoha. Now the two are fighting each other. If Orochimaru could weaken Soul Society a little bit, that would undoubtedly be the best thing.

"Orochimaru...even though you betrayed Konoha, you are still from Konoha after all."

Feeling the slight vibrations from the wriggling of thousands of snakes in the distance, as well as the suffocating spiritual pressure that emerged, Shimura Danzo's eyes were gloomy, and he murmured in his heart: "Let those guys who are neither human nor ghost have a good look at your ability and background!"

……

"Shikai…"

Looking at Orochimaru standing in front of her with the giant snake's head above him, Tsunade slowly drew out the Zanpakuto from her waist and held it across her chest.

In an instant, a sudden invisible pressure, as if the world was rejecting him, made Orochimaru subconsciously squint his eyes. The invisible pressure suddenly spread along with Tsunade's words, and for a moment, even Orochimaru's breathing began to become a little difficult.

"Glow as much as you can! Dead Tree!"

In an instant, the Zanpakuto in Tsunade's hand turned into a stream of light and merged into Tsunade's body.

The brown eyes slightly raised, and the gazes of the two former teammates met in mid-air. At this moment, Orochimaru felt as if the whole world was hostile to him. He was filled with increasingly heavy pressure all over his body, and he was even about to kneel down under this force!
"What a horrible soul pressure!"

Orochimaru's golden vertical pupils widened, and there was no fear in his heart, only curiosity and enthusiasm for the power that Tsunade was bursting out at this moment: "But what is your ability? You can release your Zanpakutō and gain special power. This is the essence of the liberation of your Shinigami, right?"

"Tsunade! As the captain of the 4th Division, what is your Shikai ability..."

Tsunade's figure in front of him suddenly disappeared.

The next second, Orochimaru felt an irresistible and terrifying force coming from his body. When he came to his senses, he could only see the orange-yellow hair and the fluttering corners of the pure white feather robe, while his body and the second generation Manja under him had already crashed to the ground.

As blood splattered, Tsunade's indifferent eyes reflected Orochimaru's astonished expression.

In an instant.

The earth shattered and thousands of snakes wailed!
"Roar!!!"

Even the most well-behaved summoning beast would wail in pain if it received such a serious and fatal injury.

Intense pain spread throughout his body and mind. No matter how loyal the Second Generation Manza was to Orochimaru, the physical injuries were so severe that the Second Generation Manza, which had just appeared for only a few minutes, returned to Ryuchi Cave on the spot.

The white smoke dissipated, and Orochimaru's body was smashed into a pool of minced meat by Tsunade's whip kick, but Tsunade's eyes remained indifferent.

Under her gaze, Orochimaru licked his lips and emerged from behind the bushes, looking at Tsunade with the same eyes as always.

The speed of movement was so fast that even he couldn't react to it, and the terrifying explosive power was enough to destroy the Second Generation Manja in an instant. At this moment, Tsunade, who had completed the initial release in front of him, was simply a humanoid tailed beast, the kind that condensed all the chakra in the body, possessing absolute combat wisdom and clear thinking!
"I can feel that the energy in your body is not fluctuating much, but the energy that bursts out is extremely terrifying."

Orochimaru licked his lips and said, "And the moment your attack landed, the chakra in my body and the chakra in the snakes' bodies were instantly reduced by more than half... If I'm not mistaken, it seems that you absorbed the chakra in my body and the snakes' bodies and transformed it into your instant burst of power."

"Draw energy and explode."

"Is this your Shikai, Tsunade?"

This power is definitely not what Tsunade possessed before.

As Tsunade's old friend, Orochimaru knows Tsunade's abilities very well. The talent of the granddaughter of the first Hokage is indeed unquestionable. Even among the three ninjas, she is indeed superior to him and Jiraiya.

However, ever since the deaths of Rope Tree and Dan, Tsunade has suffered from hemophobia. It is extremely difficult for her to develop such a powerful strength, even being able to fight is extremely difficult. Not to mention her strength has regressed, at least compared to the years since she left Konoha, she should not have made much progress.

How much growth can you expect from a guy who spends his days drinking, gambling and self-destructing?
But after becoming a Shinigami and joining Soul Society, Tsunade actually had a second spring!

The power of the god of death is indeed special and powerful!

"Put away that look, Orochimaru. I know you've learned something about the Soul Society and the God of Death through the Akatsuki organization or some other channels, but you probably don't know the biggest characteristic of the God of Death."

Tsunade's eyes were filled with pity as she calmly said, "Soul."

"In fact, I know that is not your true body. I also know that the one talking to me now is still not your true body. It just has a part of the chakra that has been fused with the soul."

"To me, your soul is like a candle in the dark night, extremely conspicuous, but that candle flame seems to be blown by the evening breeze, constantly swaying, as if it will go out at any time... Your soul is just like Konoha at this moment, devastated and broken."

"You guy..." The smile on Orochimaru's face gradually faded, and a cold light flashed in his eyes: "You don't want to really fight with me, Tsunade."

"What can you do?"

Tsunade snorted lightly, her tone relaxed: "The information about you has long been posted in the database of Soul Society, including the so-called Eight-Headed Technique and Impure World Reincarnation. These tricks are meaningless to us Death Gods. Hozuki Gengetsu should have told you this."

"If I wanted, you would be a corpse now, Orochimaru, a corpse whose soul can't even enter the netherworld!"

"Is it."

A sneer appeared on Orochimaru's lips, and he made the 'Wei' seal with his right hand.

The next moment, an inexplicable light appeared on the ground in front of Orochimaru, and two wooden coffins slowly broke out of the ground and appeared in front of Tsunade.

"Immortal Reincarnation? I've told you before that for us Death Gods, this kind of thing is meaningless..."

One of the coffins fell to the ground with a crisp sound, and Tsunade's words came to an abrupt end at this moment.

She looked at the figure in the coffin with disbelief, her eyes kept shrinking, and even her body began to tremble.

"I understand that Impure World Reincarnation is ineffective against Death Gods."

Looking at Tsunade's current appearance, Orochimaru licked the corner of his mouth and revealed a wicked smile: "The captain of your Sixth Division of the Soul Society, the Second Mizukage Hozuki Gengetsu, left an extremely deep impression on me."

"But this move should still be of some use to you, Tsunade."

"…Is it…Tsunade…"

As Orochimaru finished speaking, the figure in the opened coffin slowly raised his head, and a look of reminiscence emerged in his eyes: "It must have been a long time since we last met, you haven't changed at all... and Orochimaru."

"Break..."

Tsunade's red lips trembled, as if she couldn't believe her eyes.

Endless thoughts and emotions surged up at this moment, as if something was stuck in my throat, and my heart felt sour and bitter.

"It's been a long time since we last met, Duan Jun. To be honest, I'm really sorry to let you meet under such circumstances, but I really have no other choice."

Orochimaru licked the corner of his mouth and showed an evil smile: "This is a reunion that transcends life and death, time and space. Shouldn't you smile, Tsunade? Why do you look like this?"

"Or, in addition to Duan Jun, you need someone else to appear in order to make you smile." "No, don't..."

Tsunade's body was shaking more and more violently. She knew without thinking who was in the other coffin.

She looked at the figure in front of her that she had been thinking about day and night, and subconsciously took a step forward, but this step made her startled, and then she took several steps back.

Her expression became more and more complicated, and her mind was in a mess. She didn't even know what she should do or what she should think at this moment.

anger?
Orochimaru destroyed the remains of his two most beloved people without authorization, and even prevented their souls from resting forever in the Pure Land of the Underworld. This behavior is undoubtedly worthy of Tsunade's anger.

However, it was precisely because of Orochimaru's actions that she was able to see the two people she loved most in her heart again!

What should she do.

The Impure World Reincarnation can completely control the Impure World People. What should she do if Orochimaru controls Dan and Nawaki?
To the god of death, the Impure World Reincarnation is vulnerable, but precisely because it is vulnerable, Tsunade dares not act rashly.

If you are not careful, the rope tree may be broken forever...

"What do you want?"

Tsunade closed her eyes painfully, and opened them slowly after a long time, forcing herself not to look at the person she had been thinking about day and night, but to look at Orochimaru: "Orochimaru, what do you want!"

"You were the one who came to me, Tsunade. Shouldn't I be the one asking you this?"

Orochimaru smiled evilly, he made the right bet.

In terms of combat power, he is indeed no match for Tsunade. He would not dare to underestimate Tsunade even if she had not become a Death God, let alone Tsunade who had become a Death God.

But with these two trump cards, he is inherently invincible when facing Tsunade!

However, Orochimaru did not dare to anger Tsunade too much. He did not know why his former companion abandoned Konoha and joined the Soul Society, but it must have taken a lot of psychological thinking and an extremely firm determination to make Tsunade give up her clan and her village.

If his extreme behavior caused Tsunade to give up her 'beloved' and 'brothers' again, then the fun would really get serious.

"receive!"

Orochimaru shouted softly, and the Impure Earth Coffin that was broken and tied to the rope tree slowly merged into the ground.

Without the stimulation of her loved one, Tsunade's emotions slowly calmed down.

After a moment, Tsunade breathed a sigh of relief, a stream of light appeared on her body, and she turned into a Zanpakuto again, which she put into the scabbard at her waist.

"Looks like we can have a good chat."

Orochimaru casually formed a seal, and many white snakes lurking on the battlefield turned into white smoke and disappeared: "How about as old classmates?"

"Tsk, whatever you want."

……

Zi—Chou—Xu—Wu—Hai—Yin!

Uchiha Fugaku, wearing the Susanoo bone armor, jumped high, and swung the chakra blades with the Susanoo in both hands, blowing away the Cloud Hidden Clan on both sides. At the same time, the chakra in his body continuously gathered at his throat and was suddenly spit out.

"Fire Release: Great Fire Extinguishing Arrows!"

Exploding flames spewed out of Uchiha Fugaku's mouth like an all-encompassing force. Although not as huge as a squad of Uchiha Madara, its power, combined with the Susanoo bone armor all over the body, was also quite shocking.

In this era when the Gundam has not yet fully arrived, the highest combat power in the entire ninja world, apart from those Kage and special beings, is the Tailed Beast.

Apart from these, there is only one version of the answer to the remaining messy ninja power.

Susanoo!

The whistling raging flames coupled with the swinging of Susanoo's Susanoo blade, even though the chakra loss in his body was extremely huge, his eyes were stinging and he even saw things a little blurry, but Uchiha Fugaku's face was full of excitement.

The surrounding Kumogakure ninjas were either blown away by the Susanoo blade or engulfed by the flames. Those thunder and wind shurikens that were attacking them were not worth mentioning at all!
"Asshole! Asshole!"

A bloody jonin wiped his face and shouted angrily, "Where's the Water Style Squad? Come here! And the Earth Style Squad, come together to restrain him!"

"Earth escape! Earth flow wall!"

"Earth Escape! Yellow Spring Marsh!"

"Water escape! Water dragon bullet!"

The surrounding Hidden Cloud Ninjas worked together to release ninjutsu, barely restraining Uchiha Fugaku while also blocking the incoming fire attack.

But after just a few breaths, the fire that was extinguished by the raging inferno suddenly expanded, and the earth wall that had just been raised collapsed under the return of chakra, and countless blazing flames completely engulfed the cloud-hiding places behind the earth wall in an instant.

Scary wails rang out one after another, and a large number of Uchiha ninjas rushed to Fugaku's body, using fire-style ninjutsu one after another, turning the entire plain into a sea of ​​​​fire incinerator, burning everything.

The fragile resistance even made all the ninjas present suspect that their opponent was not the Hidden Cloud Nation, one of the five major countries, but an ordinary ninja village of a small country.

"Clan leader, the main force of Yunyin has completely evacuated."

Inahori appeared beside Uchiha Fugaku and quickly reported: "They abandoned the supplies and left this small group of troops behind. The rest of the personnel ran away without even looking back!"

"Are you sure the other side has completely withdrawn?!"

Fugaku turned his head and looked at Inahime, the blood-colored Mangekyo made this Uchiha elite stunned.

"Well, we used illusion to interrogate them. It was the order of the Fourth Raikage. They were afraid of the power of the Mangekyō Sharingan, so they withdrew their troops and dared not fight!"

"Chief, it was you who led us to resist the invasion of Yunyin, and it was you who brought us victory in this war!"

"You ran away because you were afraid of the power of the kaleidoscope..."

"hahahahahahahaha!!!"

Hearing Uchiha Inahiri's words, Fugaku couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and then an Uchiha laugh appeared on his face.

After a moment, Uchiha Fugaku's gaze fell on the half-burned Kumogakure flag that was ignited by the raging flames. He directly activated the third stage of Susanoo and smashed it to pieces with a Susanoo fist.

Then, he pulled out the flag of Konoha and held it high. The sound from his mouth, deliberately spread by chakra, transformed half of the plain.

"The Kumogakure is defeated and flees. Konoha has won this battle! Long live Konoha!"

Countless ninjas stared in a daze at the raised Susanoo, and at the Konoha flag raised by Susanoo. Their dull faces turned into ecstasy after a few breaths.

"We win! We win!"

"Hahahaha, we won! Konoha won!"

"Long live Konoha!"

"Long live the Uchiha! Long live Chief Fugaku!"

"Long live the Uchiha! Long live Konoha!"

The setting sun was blood-red, and the cheers of countless ninjas rang out across the plain at dusk, reaching Fugaku's ears.

Hearing this, Fugaku contentedly dispersed the Susanoo that had been stretched to its limit, and said to himself.

“Steady!”

When Danzo heard this voice in the distance, his already gloomy face became darker than the bottom of a pot under the encouragement of Dasheng. He clenched his fists and stared at Fugaku with his only exposed eye, with a look flashing in it that was unclear whether it was envy or disgust.

After a long moment, he sighed.

There is no doubt that after this battle, no one can stop the Uchiha clan's status in the village, and Uchiha Fugaku, as the clan leader and the biggest contributor to this battle, will rise completely!
"Maru spicy..."
